We enjoyed our stay at Bancroft- very comfortable bedroom. Location perfect for our needs. Tina was very welcoming and we enjoyed a delicious breakfast cooked by Mandisa.

Very clean and hospitable host. We were disappointed that our request for bed type was not met, yet it was confirmed in the reservation confirmation

Perfect Gem in PMB Stayed for a night with my girlfriend on the way back from the midlands. The owner Tina was an incredibly sweet and kind lady. With the property being nestled on its own serene little plot of land, I'd highly recommend it to any couple looking to unplug from the world for a little bit.

Fantastic premises and the host was excellent. Tina was helpful and contacted us as we booked to see what our needs were as a family. The venue is amazing and we loved the atmosphere.

What a fantastic, popular & busy B&B. We were going to a friend's wedding nearby and stayed here for 7 nights. Bancroft B&B is a stunning Georgian style building set in a beautiful garden with a pool. Tina (host) and her staff made us feel incredibly welcome. The room was excellent with a very comfortable bed, bath, shower, sofa, tea/coffee making facilities and a lovely view. Delicious cooked breakfasts (I recommend the omelette). We would definitely stay here again. Tina is very friendly, interesting and went out of her way to make our stay in South Africa an enjoyable and unforgettable one. We hope to stay here again in August.
